In the final scene when the wind picks up, be sure to look for a 2x4 that holds up the fake tree when the weeds are blown away.
Professor: Come on, folks. Let the Skipper sleep. Thurston: Well all right, but he'll never recover if you molly coddle him. Professor: Mr. Howell, have you seen the bruise on his head? Thurston: Have you seen the bruise on that tree? It's horrifying. I ought to notify Smokey the Bear.
Gilligan: The Skipper sure is depressed. Professor: Yeah, I wish we could find a way to cheer him up. Gilligan: I know. Let's give him a surprise birthday party. Professor: Hey, that's a great idea. When's his birthday? Gilligan: Last month. Professor: Last month? Gilligan: Yeah, it'll be a big surprise.
Skipper: Did you bury him in the right place? Gilligan: Kind of. Skipper: What do you mean, kind of? Gilligan: It's close enough. Skipper: Next to the pit? Gilligan: Well it's sort of kind of next to the pit. Skipper: Gilligan, did you bury Kona, or did you not? Gilligan: He's better than buried. He's lost.
Professor: Skipper, little earthquakes are not uncommon on these volcanic islands. The underground gases exert pressure on the substrata formations causing shifts in the geological striations. Gilligan: Skipper, I agree. Skipper: Gilligan, how could you agree? Did you understand what he said? Gilligan: No, but it's the way he says it.
Skipper: Whoever disturbs [Kona's] rest is cursed forever. Gilligan: Thanks for taking over the digging, Skipper.
Professor: This is a wonderful way to protect our food supply. It'll be cool down there. Skipper: Yeah, Gilligan promoted a steamer truck from the Howells. Figures he'll put the food in it and drop the whole thing in the pit. Professor: Well it's a wonderful idea. You two men deserve a lot of credit. Skipper: I can't take any bows this time, Professor. These are all Gilligan's decisions. Gilligan: All except one. Professor: What was that? Gilligan: He decided I could do the digging.
